HBO apologizes for featuring severed head resembling G W Bush

HBO has apologized for featuring a severed head resembling G W Bush in a drama Game of Thrones.We were deeply dismayed to see this and find it unacceptable, disrespectful and in very bad taste, Home Box Office said, blaming executive producers of the series for an inadvertent careless mistake.We are sorry this happened.The likeness of the presidential noggin appears for just a second with others impaled atop a row of stakes in an episode in the first season aired last year.The shows creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss recently drew attention to it in a commentary for the DVD.Its not a choice, its not a political statement. We just had to use whatever heads we had lying around, they said.We use a lot of prosthetic body parts on the show: heads, arms, etcetera. We cant afford to have these all made from scratch, especially in scenes where we need a lot of them, so we rent them in bulk. After the scene was already shot, someone pointed out that one of the heads looked like George W. Bush.We meant no disrespect to the former president and apologize if anything we said or did suggested otherwise.HBO said the scene would be removed from future DVD production.
